How do you get to be an evolutionary biologist who does fieldwork in remote tropical forests? As Ed explains, he was a pretty normal kid from the suburbs. A high-school teacher took him out on class field trips, and Ed realized that being a scientist could mean going on field trips as a career. After seeing an early TV show about birds-of-paradise, he knew where he wanted to go.

Despite the unprecedented pace of scientific breakthroughs, humanity still seems to be as far away from the age of reason as ever. With religious extremism and political infantilism spreading across the globe, often aiding one another, has governance based on critical thinking already become a delusion? To discuss this, Oksana is joined by Richard Dawkins, evolutionary biologist.

Richard Prum, the author of "The Evolution of Beauty," explains how who a female chooses to mate with can change the common traits that men show. Over time, women can change the evolutionary definition of maleness. Following is a transcript of the video.
I’m Richard Prum. I’m the William Robinson co-professor of ornithology at Yale University and I’m the author of “the Evolution of Beauty.”
So one of the things that’s really mysterious about people is the evolution of our cognitive complexity, our long childhoods, language, material culture – all of these things. And they take large amounts of investment in babies to get them to grow for a really long time.
This pattern of investment was only made possible by overcoming male violence in our primate ancestors. Male chimpanzees and gorillas routinely murder babies for their own sexual advantage when they take over a troop.
And this kind infanticide is really damaging to the sexual interest of the females.So one of the things that had to happen in human evolution was to solve the infanticide problem.
Human females have evolved or have used mate choice to transform maleness in a way that furthers their own sexual autonomy.
And this could have included preferring males that were smaller in relative body size. That were say not as large as gorillas.
That had smaller canine teeth. They didn’t have weapons in their faces like our chimpanzees ancestors.
So this is a kind of special way in which mate choice can remodel maleness in a way that furthers the sexual autonomy of the female.

Dawkins is a noted atheist, and is well known for his criticism of creationism and intelligent design. In his 1986 book The Blind Watchmaker, he argues against the watchmaker analogy, an argument for the existence of a supernatural creator based upon the complexity of living organisms. Instead, he describes evolutionary processes as analogous to a blind watchmaker. In his most popular book, his 2006 book The God Delusion, Dawkins contends that a supernatural creator almost certainly does not exist and that religious faith is a delusion. He is an opponent of creationism being taught in schools. He makes regular television and radio appearances, predominantly discussing his books, his atheism and his ideas and opinions as a public intellectual.

Unidentified flying object

An unidentified flying object, or UFO, in its most general definition, is any apparent anomaly in the sky that is not identifiable as a known object or phenomenon. Culturally, UFOs are associated with claims of visitation by extraterrestrial life or government-related conspiracy theories, and have become popular subjects in fiction. While UFOs are often later identified, sometimes identification may not be possible owing to the usually low quality of evidence related to UFO sightings (generally anecdotal evidence and eyewitness accounts).

Stories of fantastical celestial apparitions have been told since antiquity, but the term "UFO" (or "UFOB") was officially created in 1953 by the United States Air Force (USAF) to serve as a catch-all for all such reports. In its initial definition, the USAF stated that a "UFOB" was "any airborne object which by performance, aerodynamic characteristics, or unusual features, does not conform to any presently known aircraft or missile type, or which cannot be positively identified as a familiar object." Accordingly, the term was initially restricted to that fraction of cases which remained unidentified after investigation, as the USAF was interested in potential national security reasons and/or "technical aspects" (see Air Force Regulation 200-2).

Evolutionary Biologist Divulges The Secret To Human Coexisting

Luke Rudkowski in Majorca, Spain talks with Evolutionary Biologist and FuturistElisabet Sahtouris about her life's work. She studied algae which covered Earth in its first 2 billion years to find that there's a maturation cycle of all life, and is trying use this information as a blue print for how humans should live.

This Yale biologist has a fascinating theory of how women changed human evolution

Evolutionary Biology with Elisabet Sahtouris

join Alan and Elisabet Sahtouris, evolutionary biologist about creating a new paradigm of a living universe where consciousness is primary.

published: 26 Feb 2008

The Story of Life: Critical Insights from Evolutionary Biology

Proponents of various teleological arguments point to the sheer immensity and precision of the universe, reinforced by the diversity and complexity of its abundant life forms, to support the idea of purpose behind its majestic architecture. But is there any empirical evidence of an inherent drive within the evolutionary process itself that invariably leads to greater complexity, and ultimately human consciousness? Back in the 1990s, that question sparked a lively debate between two evolutionary biologists, Stephen Jay Gould and Simon Conway Morris. Whereas Gould maintained that human evolution was a fortuitous accident — things would turn out completely different if we re-ran the tape of evolution — ConwayMorris argued that convergence drives evolution in specific directions, and inevitab...

Despite the unprecedented pace of scientific breakthroughs, humanity still seems to be as far away from the age of reason as ever. With religious extremism and political infantilism spreading across the globe, often aiding one another, has governance based on critical thinking already become a delusion? To discuss this, Oksana is joined by Richard Dawkins, evolutionary biologist.

Proponents of various teleological arguments point to the sheer immensity and precision of the universe, reinforced by the diversity and complexity of its abundant life forms, to support the idea of purpose behind its majestic architecture. But is there any empirical evidence of an inherent drive within the evolutionary process itself that invariably leads to greater complexity, and ultimately human consciousness? Back in the 1990s, that question sparked a lively debate between two evolutionary biologists, Stephen Jay Gould and Simon Conway Morris. Whereas Gould maintained that human evolution was a fortuitous accident — things would turn out completely different if we re-ran the tape of evolution — ConwayMorris argued that convergence drives evolution in specific directions, and inevitably leads to conscious beings. While the debate continues, the notion that humans, in all their complexity, are merely an evolutionary accident, an insignificant speck in a boundless cosmos, is deeply unsatisfying for most non-scientists and fails to resonate with their life experience. What, then, can evolutionary biology ultimately tell us about the meaning of our lives? Paleoanthropologists MelanieChang and Ian Tattersall, and paleontologist Simon Conway Morris share their insights on these competing concepts, and explain how meaning and purpose can be gleaned from the remarkable story of life itself.

The 2016 Boyle Lecture: http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/the-mathematics-of-evolutionary-biology-implications-for-ethics
The latter part of the 20th century saw a revulsion against classic forms of "natural theology" which was propelled as much by theological fashion as by secular scientific resistance. This lecture lays out a cautious case for the reconsideration of a new style of "natural theology". It does so in the light of remarkable new discoveries in mathematicalized accounts of evolutionary "cooperation" which significantly challenge the idea of pervasive randomness in evolutionary processes. The ethical and teleological questions which are raised by these cooperative phenomena, it is argued, demand some sort of meaning-making response and ultimately metaphysical issues cannot be shirked. The question of God is reconsidered in this context, with a surprising final twist to the argument in which the human epistemic subject is itself drawn towards an invited transformation.

How do you get to be an evolutionary biologist who does fieldwork in remote tropical forests? As Ed explains, he was a pretty normal kid from the suburbs. A high-school teacher took him out on class field trips, and Ed realized that being a scientist could mean going on field trips as a career. After seeing an early TV show about birds-of-paradise, he knew where he wanted to go.

This Yale biologist has a fascinating theory of how women changed human evolution

Richard Prum, the author of "The Evolution of Beauty," explains how who a female chooses to mate with can change the common traits that men show. Over time, women can change the evolutionary definition of maleness. Following is a transcript of the video.
I’m Richard Prum. I’m the William Robinson co-professor of ornithology at Yale University and I’m the author of “the Evolution of Beauty.”
So one of the things that’s really mysterious about people is the evolution of our cognitive complexity, our long childhoods, language, material culture – all of these things. And they take large amounts of investment in babies to get them to grow for a really long time.
This pattern of investment was only made possible by overcoming male violence in our primate ancestors. Male chimpanzees and gorillas routinely murder babies for their own sexual advantage when they take over a troop.
And this kind infanticide is really damaging to the sexual interest of the females.So one of the things that had to happen in human evolution was to solve the infanticide problem.
Human females have evolved or have used mate choice to transform maleness in a way that furthers their own sexual autonomy.
And this could have included preferring males that were smaller in relative body size. That were say not as large as gorillas.
That had smaller canine teeth. They didn’t have weapons in their faces like our chimpanzees ancestors.
So this is a kind of special way in which mate choice can remodel maleness in a way that furthers the sexual autonomy of the female.

The Story of Life: Critical Insights from Evolutionary Biology

Proponents of various teleological arguments point to the sheer immensity and precision of the universe, reinforced by the diversity and complexity of its abundant life forms, to support the idea of purpose behind its majestic architecture. But is there any empirical evidence of an inherent drive within the evolutionary process itself that invariably leads to greater complexity, and ultimately human consciousness? Back in the 1990s, that question sparked a lively debate between two evolutionary biologists, Stephen Jay Gould and Simon Conway Morris. Whereas Gould maintained that human evolution was a fortuitous accident — things would turn out completely different if we re-ran the tape of evolution — ConwayMorris argued that convergence drives evolution in specific directions, and inevitably leads to conscious beings. While the debate continues, the notion that humans, in all their complexity, are merely an evolutionary accident, an insignificant speck in a boundless cosmos, is deeply unsatisfying for most non-scientists and fails to resonate with their life experience. What, then, can evolutionary biology ultimately tell us about the meaning of our lives? Paleoanthropologists MelanieChang and Ian Tattersall, and paleontologist Simon Conway Morris share their insights on these competing concepts, and explain how meaning and purpose can be gleaned from the remarkable story of life itself.
